2D Toolpath for Open Pocket

[Eli_Dexter]

I am new to HSMWorks/HSMXpress. I am trying to create tool path for open on 2 sides pocket/slot. Slot is .125", tool is 3/32". It seams to be a simple 2 path cut -> Tool plunges outside stock, moves along Y axis move 1/32" along X axis, and then comes back along Y axis. I am using 2D Pocket with lead-in and lead-out unchecked, but in generated path there is a Z movement before tool moves along X axis.

What I am missing? Is there way to optimize the path?

@Eli_Dexter this would be a 2D contour not a pocket, pick the 2 bottom edges and put the arrows to the inside of the knotch

That worked, though it took some tweaking...

Thanks
